The Pope’s instructions to his new doctrine chief: “We need a thinking that knows how to present in a convincing way the God who loves, who pardons, who saves, who liberates, who moves persons and summons them to fraternal service.”

In dynamic Chrism Mass homily, Francis tells priests, if you want people to feel “welcomed and loved,” in the Church, then stop being “instruments of division,” who “foment parties and cliques, fuel nostalgia for times past, distrust, pessimism and fear.” https://t.co/IGOkqzdefj

A signal airborne moment: Pope saying gay people are beloved children of God, prejudice against them is a sin and outlawing homosexuality an injustice; and @JustinWelby adding that he agreed “with every word” and wished he had spoken with the pope’s elegance and clarity.

In 2020, I wrote for @americamag about Fr. Jacques Mourad, a Syriac Catholic priest who was kidnapped by ISIS and escaped-- thanks to his Muslim friends. Today, he was named Archbishop of Homs, Syria.

I'm in a Jesuit parish in Chalco outside Mexico City, home to millions of migrants who came to the city looking for work. Each night this week there've been Posadas in which slightly wealthier families (e.g., school teachers, fruit stand owners) have invited poorer neighbors—
